answered grow question 6y ago
So far so good! This will create 4 separate tops. The trick is keeping them all the same height. You may have to top your two main stems to slow it down, but you're right on point.

I'm a newbie in LST but things seems to be going fine. What more can I do to improve yields? May I reduce the number of colas?

Removal of fan leaves touching the medium
When performing LST, would you guys remove the fan leaves touching the medium or leave them on? I am just worried that they might catch mold due to the irrigation.

Height control
I have limited space working with these plants, I know that blue dream likes to stretch. Working with a 2x4’ tent with a headspace of about 4’. Any advice on growing techniques to keep these in control while getting max potential volume?

Topping and LST autoflower
I have a 2.5 week old seedling that is only ~3 inches tall, but I just topped/fimmed the 5th node. I plan on starting LST, how long should I wait before tying them down? She is currently in a 3 gallon.

Should I be starting LST. Been bending to get it used to it but not tied yet
I feel like the topic is very controversial about when to start LST. Some say 3 nodes some say 6. Attached is a picture of my biggest girl so far. Lots of new growth this week so far but not the tallest yet. Open to hearing from the grow community thanks

LST Defo = This?
It's my first time doing LST and defoliation. And even after many years growing outdoors and reading so much, still would like to hear second opinions to make sure I'm doing it 'right'. She's fed right after training and defoliation to help recover. Opinions? Thanks
